Converted chapel in Johnstown
Currently being sold by Asteris Homes. Apparently this development is the winner of the Civic Society Renovation Award for 2008. Assuming I've got the right chapel, it was originally called Seilo Chapel. Seilo probably refers to the ancient city of Shiloh, once the religious capital of Israel.
